Peralta delivers wide-open skies, space for hobbies and horses, and the convenience of nearby city amenities. Set along the Rio Grande’s greenbelt, it places you minutes from Bosque Farms and Los Lunas, with a direct hop to Albuquerque for jobs, entertainment, and major medical care. Commuters appreciate NM‑47 and the nearby New Mexico Rail Runner Express for stress-free trips up and down the valley, while services and permitting align through Valencia County.
Schools are a strong draw: the community is served by Los Lunas Schools, offering neighborhood campuses and a range of extracurriculars. Higher education is close at the UNM‑Valencia campus, making dual‑credit courses and continuing education accessible without a long commute. When it’s time to unplug, residents head to the bosque for birding and evening walks or explore the trails and wetlands at the Whitfield Wildlife Conservation Area. Local farms and roadside stands keep seasonal produce on the table, and community events in surrounding towns add a friendly, small‑town rhythm to the calendar.
Housing in Peralta ranges from irrigated acreages and equestrian properties to newer single‑family homes, often with room for workshops, RVs, and gardens.
